Goodreads asked Sarah Rajkotwala:

What’s your advice for aspiring writers?

Sarah Rajkotwala My advice to aspiring writers is to just write. Get anything down, you can always correct it and edit it later or even delete it. However the first step is to just to fill the blank page with writing, just be you, talk about what you are interested in.

Start talking to your audience. Pretend you have an audience already and they are waiting with baited-breath to hear what you have to say. So pretending that what you have to say is important and that you already have an audience waiting for you, is a great way to get yourself moving as an author. Have faith in yourself and believe you have what it takes, because in reality you do!
